    摘要: A computer screensaver program runs a home energy manager application. The screensaver program is activated after a predetermined time and automatically runs a web browser by detecting the URL of the home energy manager application. The home energy manager interface is then displayed on the computer screen or a remote monitor. Preferably, the screensaver cycles through one or more various screens and remains active until a key is pressed or the mouse is activated.

    摘要: A resource consumption user interface is disclosed comprising one or more user input features for selecting a start time and an end time for monitoring at least one resource consumption task from a plurality of resource consumption tasks that contribute to a total resource consumption in a given environment, wherein the plurality of resource consumption tasks are associated with one or more appliances that operate in the given environment. The resource consumption user interface also comprises one or more user output features for presenting information about the selected resource consumption task, beginning at the selected start time, and updating the presented information until the selected end time is reached.

    摘要: A resource consumption user interface is disclosed comprising one or more user input features for selecting a start date and an end date for defining a selected time range over which to determine resource consumption associated with at least one resource consumption task from a plurality of resource consumption tasks that contribute to a total resource consumption in a given environment. The plurality of resource consumption tasks are associated with one or more appliances that operate in the given environment. The start date and the end date are selectable for any desired time range over a given time duration. The resource consumption user interface also comprises one or more user output features for presenting information associated with the at least one resource consumption task, wherein the presented information represents accumulated information beginning at a time on the selected start date and ending at a time on the selected end date.
